Help with a Music Studio - Low End Question
I am in the process of building out a music studio in a spare room in the house. Small room, but open on 2 sides so it behaves like a larger room. I have Kali In-8's and plan to treat it, but my question at this point is this - my monitors are about 1m apart, because I'm positioned about 1m from each of them. This seems quite close, but the desk I bought (unfortunately) isn't deep enough to give me more distance from the monitors. Nonetheless, they sound good and clear so far, but the low end is minimal, which is to be expected if I'm sitting so close. The low end doesn't really develop until I'm about 3m from the monitors, which is pretty much at the back of the room and not realistic for my setup.
So I'm wondering whether adding a sub to the room, let's say in a corner about 2m from my position, will raise the low end presence? If not, is there anything I can realistically do, other than try to set my desk up in a way that allows me to sit farther back from the monitors? If I don't add a sub, do I need to be careful about low end treatment since it's already not prominent at my listening position?
